Freshing incoming from Don Young regarding drilling for natural gas in the Barnett Shale in the Tarrant County, Fort Worth urban zone.....Are you one of those people who says, "I'm not against gas drilling in general, but..."?
Then, where DO you think is an OK place to drill?
For those of you who aren't quite sure if you want a gas well in your 'hood or not, come on over to east Fort Worth. We have plenty.
Check out our latest pad site in the pic below. It is directly behind the Seven Eleven store on E. Lancaster Ave. (Hwy. 80) @ Beach St.
Do you think this new addition to our neighborhood enhances our quality of life?
Do you think it will help us attract new businesses and residents?
Would you like to have one in YOUR neighborhood?
Would you feel safe and secure with dozens of them surrounding your neighborhood?
How about a few miles of 24" odorless gas pipelines threading under your streets and a few compressor stations scattered about?
Maybe FW Mayor Mike Moncrief would like one behind the Seven Eleven near his home over on Camp Bowie Blvd.
He was quoted last Thursday as saying, "We protect the quality of life of people who live here, which we are not going to sacrifice."
Gosh, Mr. Mayor, did you tell a little white lie?
